The run
What moves on this lane
Hickory is furniture country, with cable and fiber plants mixed in. Much of what it makes ships to showrooms, retailers, and warehouses around Chicago.
Furniture is bulky and easy to scuff, so fewer touches mean fewer problems. This lane runs straight through in one dry van, with no cross-dock along the way.
Hickory is about an hour from our Pineville terminal, so pickups here start close to home.
